    Im going to assume the acme data HITS where you have to record your voice are impossible because i use a $400 SHURE studio microphone to record and it tells me there is either clipping or im too soft, hell no its not.

    "You want me to say and I will not obey!"

    The Acme HITs are actually not about the recordings; they're about how much work you have to do to get them to work.

    I changed it to the flash based microphone built into my laptop, and I'm almost done with my second one today.

    I use the default webcam mic and I'm fine doing them. Adjust your levels.

    Repeating it usually gets it to work. I'm never too soft when it says I am either, but just repeating it, sometimes louder, sometimes in a different tone, does the trick. I also use the defaults.

    ran into a gay sex doll with a raging hard-on on these german interest audits. lol.

    i don't really know what specifically makes it for gay dudes rather than women, but that's how it was marketed.

    My stalking @gurlondrums vacation, we're gonna leave the Poconos early tonight. We don't really plan on going anywhere tonight and tomorrow would just be cleaning up this timeshare lodge. Plus I can't remote into my Desktop at home and I need to tweak a few things on my Plex server.

    Not to mention my PE has suffered on this much slower internet than I have at home.

    Hi L,

    Thanks for your interest in our HITs. The qualification is granted based upon past performance on our HITs. We may release HITs moving forward though that don't require this qual.
